The constitution ensures that only landowners can be a part of government and keeps the population down by giving them the illusion of rights. Just look around you, what rights do you have? You can bear arms, but just try and bring down an unjust government and watch them throw you ass in jail forever ( if they don’t shoot you of course). You have no rights, no power and the constitution only applies to the 1% . get used to it!

Wed, 14 May 2014 13:05:59 +0000http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/?p=140#comment-955486The “founding fathers” were mostly wealthy, slaveholding white men who wrote the Constitution to serve their own interests. Important clauses in the Constitution were written to appease slaveholders in the south. Slaves were freed by brutal force nearly a century after the revolution, and women finally were allowed to vote in 1920. Wealthy people and corporations worldwide continue to use the American Constitution to maintain and expand their grip on wealth, power, and property, while most Americans continue to work their lives away, much as they did in 1776. Injustice continues as always, and the Constitution has done little to alleviate it.

But we’re in a radically different world than 250 years ago, I doubt the founding fathers could have even dreamed of television, radio, satellite, and space travel, as well as ever-growing video cameras on virtually every corner.

The problem now is if you call them on their injustices, you are persecuted for actually paying attention. See rawstory and/or google ‘badphoenixcops.com’ where one civilian blogger simply recorded his police department’s corruption, and was hit by a strike force who confiscated or destroyed everything in his possession and brought him up on charges of ‘harassment.’

â€œThe Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.â€

The revolution was not a war, it was the implementation of the ideas of Thomas Paine among others. Government was supposed to be just a function, but it has become an entity. Our founders were completely against our government becoming an entity, most of them anyway.

We are a weak and corrupt people, and we have the government that we deserve. We allowed it to happen after all.
